The position

Translate vague business questions into problems the data can actually answer. Partner with data engineering on feature tables and data quality. Estimate causal effects with difference-in-differences, propensity matching or regression discontinuity. Pull and shape data with SQL from Snowflake, BigQuery or Databricks. Package reusable code instead of leaving it in one-off notebooks. Build predictive models in Python using scikit-learn, XGBoost or LightGBM. Review peers' analyses for statistical correctness.

Required qualifications
